This wiki will use the [reComputer J4012](https://www.seeedstudio.com/reComputer-J4012-p-5586.html) as an example to demonstrate how to retrieve the boot logs of a device via the Jetson serial port.

## Prerequisites

- reComputer J4012/ J4011/ J3010 or J3011
- [USB to Serial (TTL) Module](https://www.seeedstudio.com/CH340G-USB-to-Serial-TTL-Module-Adapter-p-2359.html)
- A computer with a serial port debugging tool installed

:::info
You can download and install a serial port debugging tool according to your personal preference. We recommend using [PuTTY](https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html), [XShell](https://www.netsarang.com/en/xshell/) or [MobaXterm](https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/).

This tutorial uses MobaXterm.
:::

## Hardware Connection

1. Connect the corresponding pins of the J15 interface to the USB2TTL module.
2. Connect the USB2TTL module to the computer with the serial port debugging tool installed.

## Get System Log

**Step1.** Obtain the identification number of the USB2TTL module recognized by the computer.

:::note
If your computer is running Windows, you can find the recognized identification number in the Device Manager.

description: List the possible causes of timeout issues during the Jetson flashing process.

</div>

There are several reasons that may cause a timeout issue during the process of flashing the Jetson device via the command line:

1. **Abnormalities with the Ubuntu host PC used for flashing:** A typical example is flashing through an Ubuntu virtual machine. Due to USB stability issues in virtual machines, timeouts are often encountered.
2. **Insufficient power supply from the DC power adapter:** The power output needs to meet the requirements of the Jetson device. You can check this parameter on the product details page of Seeed Bazaar.
3. **Quality issues with the Type-C cable:** Although flashing can be done via USB 2.0, the quality of the cable affects the stability of the process. Based on practical experience, two key points for the cable are: (a) it should at least support USB 2.0 communication, and (b) the cable length should be shorter than 1.5m.
4. **Avoid using USB hubs:** Some USB hubs may affect the stability of data transmission during the flashing process.
5. **Incorrect flashing package selection:** Please verify that the correct flashing package is selected and restart the flashing script.

Please check the issues mentioned above and try restarting the flashing script.
